I love the look of Pre 70 series Colts. This upgrade was for a Gulfstream pilot. On top I installed an XS small dot front sight, a Novak style rear by Kenight. The slide was French cut. The original barrel was welded up and refit to the slide. An EGW bushed was fit the barrel as well as a a long nose plug to match up with the thick bushing. The extractor and FPS are EGW's. The frame was reworked with a new feed ramp at 31.5 degrees and a new VIS. The frame was checkered at 25 LPI by "Metalsmith". A new 25 LPI MSH was fit and blended to the frame. The internals are a Warner sear and a Wilson hammer, disco is a EGW. The GS is Smith and Alexander. The original thumb safety and slide stop were used. The trigger is a Grieder speed trigger. The finish is blue with grips by John Hoskins in Texas of Walnut burl. I hope I get a ride in the jet.
